THE WHOLE STORY.
PErALUMA, MAY 30th.-Your reporter has
seen the City Marshal and others. and
learns that Sam Marshall has been known
for years as person of but little account.
1t IS reported that he was previously arrest
ed for some otfense years ago He was a
hard drlnker, and spent his earnings. He
became enamored of one Alice Howard, an
inmate of the Cliff House, a house of i'll
fame on the hill above Washington street.
He frequently visited there ana desired to
marry the girl. The girl only cared for his
money, ana managed TO fleece him for con-
siderable amounts. On Friday evening he
went there and renewed his attentions to
Alice, and seeing a sample of dress goods
lying on the table asked her how she
would like to have dress like that.
She said she had no money to
buy one. He turned to the mistress
of the house and asked for a loan
of ten dollars and went down the street
and bought a fine purple velvet dress-pat-
tern, paying twenty dollars. Returning ne
chatted with the girls till late at night, and
disguised with his cool reception, said
T." I'm no sucker-Pll get even YETI On
Saturday he returned early asked for Alice,
and took glass of wine to her. She
scolded about being disturbed so early, and
noticed him casting a glance at a package
which lay on the trunk. She said she
would drink the wine by and by. Finally
she arose and went to breakfast, leaving
him in the room. He soon left, and on ex-
animation the dress goods was found
burned with vitrol and sulphate of iron.
The wine is in the Marshal's hands for
analysis and evidently has been drugged.
Sam is in Jail, and will be examined to-
morrow
